Prices for Honda CR-V air filters typically range from about $15 to $40, depending on whether you need an engine filter or a cabin filter, and whether you choose aftermarket or OEM parts.
The Honda CR-V uses two common air filters: an engine air filter that cleans intake air for the engine, and a cabin (HVAC) air filter that purifies the air entering the passenger compartment. Prices vary by model year, retailer, and whether the part is OEM or aftermarket. This guide outlines current typical price ranges and where to shop as of 2024–2026.
Two main CR-V air filter types
CR-V models use two standard air filters, each with its own typical cost band depending on origin and features.
Engine air filter
Engine air filters protect the engine from dust and debris and are generally one of the more affordable maintenance parts. Typical price ranges are:
- OEM Honda engine air filter: about $25–$40.
- Aftermarket engine air filter: about $15–$30.
- Premium/high-performance engine filters: about $40–$60.
In practice, most CR-V owners pay in the $15–$40 range for an engine air filter, depending on brand and where it’s purchased.
Cabin air filter
Cabin filters remove dust, pollen and odors from the interior air, with options that include charcoal filtration for odor control. Typical price ranges are:
- OEM Honda cabin filter: about $25–$40.
- Aftermarket cabin filter: about $15–$30.
- Charcoal-activated or premium cabin filters: about $30–$50 (some specialty options up to $60).
Cabin filters can vary more based on features (carbon charcoal, anti-odor coatings), so prices commonly fall within the $15–$50 range.
Where to buy and price variation
Shopping channel and brand influence the final price. The following reflects general trends across common retailers as of 2024–2026.
- Auto parts stores (AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, O'Reilly, NAPA): engine filters typically $15–$35; cabin filters $15–$30. Promotions can reduce costs further.
- Online marketplaces and direct retailers (Amazon, RockAuto, manufacturer sites): engine filters about $12–$30; cabin filters about $12–$25, with shipping considerations.
- Honda dealerships (OEM parts): engine filters typically $30–$40; cabin filters typically $30–$40, sometimes higher for special stock.
Tip: always verify compatibility by entering your CR-V’s year and engine type when shopping online or at a parts counter, since filter size and mounting can vary by generation.
Summary
CR-V air-filter costs are generally modest and depend on the type (engine vs cabin), the brand (OEM vs aftermarket), and the retailer. Engine air filters commonly run roughly $15–$40, while cabin air filters span around $15–$50, with OEM parts typically at the higher end. To get the best price, compare several retailers, check for promotions, and confirm compatibility with your specific CR-V model year and trim.
